Theoretically is an album by Tim Berne and Bill Frisell originally released on the Empire label in 1984, and rereleased with an additional track on Minor Music in 1986. The original features three compositions by Berne, two by Frisell, and one joint composition; the rerelease adds a composition by Berne.[1][2][3]
The Allmusic review by Daniel Gioffre awarded the album 3 stars stating "The overall feel of this record puts it almost into ambient territory, as Frisell's volume swells and Berne's upper register squeals blend into a single fabric of weighty yet spacious sound. It is a place where melody emerges almost as a surprise from a strangely menacing backdrop of pure atmosphere... It all works, no doubt about it, but there is room to question the quality of the source material. Overall, this is a good, if not particularly great, album from two musicians at the top of their game.".[4]
